The New Moon / Super moon in Pisces on March 10 at 20 Pisces
This New Moon is a super moon and the closest one to Earth this year. Neptune in Pisces is nearly 7 degrees from the New Moon and in its dignity in Pisces, evoking a very watery and sensitive energy.
The New Moon falls at close to 20 degrees of Pisces so people with planets around 20 degrees of the mutable signs, especially Pisces - and to a lesser degree Virgo and maybe Gemini and Sagittarius - will feel the effects more intensely.
This strong Neptune / Pisces energy can have many positive as well as challenging effects including enhanced sensitivity on all levels – physical, emotional and energetic - which can be wonderful for our spiritual practice, inner work, intuition and creativity, but much more challenging for getting things done in the ‘real’ world. Neptune and Pisces want time to BE, FEEL and DREAM, so see if you can schedule in some down time.
Each year the Pisces New Moon can assist us to open our hearts and minds to the transpersonal and imaginal realms and to re-awaken us to the wisdom of our dreams and the power of love and compassion…to see all life forms as one. One way of honouring this energy is to take some time out for reflection and attending to our dreams well as connecting with our feelings.
Full Moon / Lunar Eclipse / on March 25 at 5 Libra
Easter always falls on the Sunday after the Full Moon that occurs on or after the Equinox, and this year the Full Moon occurs a few days before Good Friday which falls on Friday March 29.
This lunation is also an appulse lunar eclipse, meaning that the Moon is shadowed by the Earth but remains visible throughout. This phenomenon is only visible if the sky is dark when the eclipse falls. As this eclipse falls at 6pm local time [AEDT] and daylight time is in effect until April 7, the eastern seaboard of Australia will not see this.
The eclipse falls on March 25 at 5 Libra 7 with the Sun in Aries and the Moon opposite in Libra. People with planets close to 5 degrees of cardinal signs – especially Libra but also Aries, Cancer and Capricorn – will be most sensitized to its effects but everyone can benefit from inner work at this time.
Each year at the Libra Full Moon we are challenged to balance our Libra need for partnership, co-operation and compromise with the Aries need for independence and autonomy ...and to reflect on how we are balancing these parts of self.
The lunar eclipse and the proximity to Good Friday suggests images of rebirth; reflection on what needs to be let go of to allow this potential to seed may be fruitful.
